Getting ready to replace oem thermostat with a Coleman mach digital unit and had a quick question about the battery. Can I just pull the battery disconnect or do I need to completely unplug the battery before working on it? If I need to unplug the battery, I can just disconnect the negative wire right? Thanks.
Well I got the thermostat in and it seems to be working. The only problem I have is that when I tried screwing the backplate on, I could hear crunching in the wood and the screws were loose. So I know I have to raise the thermostat with either some new holes for the screws or mounting tape. If I were to do new holes, what's the best way? Just drill it in? The wall seems pretty flimsy.
Seems like plastic wall anchors would work and allow you to use the same hole location with just a slightly bigger hole. They will expand when you insert the screw and hold to the thin RV plywood wall.
I think they have them on Amazon as well. The only wire that didn't match up was the grey. I had to connect grey to brown instead of grey to grey if I remember right. Otherwise, super easy swap.
Edit: I tested the fan settings and was able to adjust between low & high. Seems to work perfect so far.
